"That's the case, I heard that the county lord defeated the head of the Tai Hospital today, and also cured the queen's poison, and I also heard that the county lord restored the mother's body with medicinal food, and I dared to stop the county lord who was about to return to the palace in the palace, and came to the Hou Mansion to ask the county lord for help."

"Palace? Stopped? The old marquis suddenly realized and reacted randomly: "Your news is very well-informed." ”

"I'm sorry, the old marquis, it's really helpless, please forgive me for my recklessness."

"Since I don't care about the distance, I have nothing to blame, since you are here, then you are also a guest of the Hou Mansion, did Uncle Guo let you come?" The old marquis asked.

"No, I wanted to do it myself." Fu Ziyan shook his head, he knew that it was definitely not appropriate for him to come to the old marquis so rashly to ask for help.

Old Marquis Sheng guessed something when he looked at Fu Ziyan's reaction, but he didn't say anything, after all, his relationship with Fu Ziyan was not close enough for him to say this kind of private matter.

"In that case, you have to let us know what you want to do, right?" The old marquis asked.

Fu Ziyan hesitated for a moment when he heard this, but finally nodded.

Old Marquis Sheng glanced at Sheng Zhiyao, Sheng Zhiyao was eating the pastry in his hand with his head down, and he didn't know that Old Marquis was looking at her, and he didn't pay attention to what they were talking about.

"Recently, my father was unwell, and my mother decocted medicine for my father every day, but for some reason my father's condition did not improve in the slightest, and he gradually lost weight, which made me very sad, so I wanted to ask the county lord to try it, hoping to cure my father's disease."

"Oh, heal, why don't you just go to the Imperial Doctor? Do you want to let Zhiyao help? ”

"My father doesn't want to cause more trouble, and it's inconvenient to bother the queen mother who is still recuperating after being poisoned, so I want to ask the county lord for help." Fu Ziyan replied truthfully, he knew that the old marquis was hinting at him and his behavior was out of line, but he could only explain it like this, after all, Sheng Zhiyao's identity was there, and he had no other way but to come here to ask Sheng Zhiyao with a cheeky face.

"How long has Uncle Guo been sick?"

"It's been a few months."

"A few months? You haven't been to the doctor? ”

"My father was unwilling, so my mother only invited a man to show her at first, and prescribed a prescription, but it never got better."

"In that case, the need for a doctor is even greater." The old marquis looked at Fu Ziyan and said seriously.

"Old Marquis!" Fu Ziyan stood up and said solemnly: "My father is unwilling, although I don't know what the reason is, but it is not easy to disobey as a child, and I also hope that my father's illness can be cured as soon as possible, so I also ask the county lord to come over to take a look." ”

The old marquis looked at Fu Ziyan's serious and serious appearance, and after a moment of silence, he nodded: "In this case, you go back to rest first, and I will go to Uncle Guo's Mansion with Zhiyao tomorrow." ”

"Thank you, old marquis!"

Fu Ziyan saluted and withdrew, and the old marquis and Sheng Zhiyao both looked at his back with complicated eyes.

"Grandpa, you said that the queen and Uncle Guo fell ill at the same time, could it be a coincidence?" Sheng Zhiyao suddenly asked the old marquis.

Old Marquis Sheng shook his head thoughtfully: "I don't know, I can't draw conclusions until I see Uncle Guo's illness tomorrow." ”

In the early morning of the second day, Sheng Zhiyao was woken up by a loud noise.

She rubbed her eyes, got dressed in a daze, and washed.

As soon as I went out, I saw Fu Ziyan waiting in the hall with an anxious face.

"Why are you here?"

"The county lord is rude, last night after returning to the house, my father suddenly had a fever, and I was in a coma all night, I rushed to the Hou Mansion as soon as it was dawn, and troubled the county lord and the old Hou Ye to move to my father's pulse."

"Then let's go now."

Sheng Zhiyao and the old marquis hurried to Uncle Guo's mansion, and on the way, Sheng Zhiyao also routinely inquired about Uncle Guo's situation: "What symptoms did Uncle Guo have during this period of illness?" ”

"Yes, my father always feels chest tightness and shortness of breath, and occasionally vomits, but not to the point where he can't breathe, and sometimes he feels tired and weak."

"Really?"

Fu Ziyan nodded: "Although I have never studied medical skills, I have probably heard my father and mother mention it." ”

"Okay, let's go see what's being said."

Uncle Guo's Mansion

Sheng Zhiyao and Old Marquis Sheng arrived, and Uncle Guo's wife had just come out of Uncle Guo's room.

Mrs. Guo's face was pale, her eyes were sunken, her eyes were blue, and she looked haggard, obviously she hadn't slept all night.

"Mother, how is my father?"

"I just woke up, and now I'm asleep again." Mrs. Guo's face was sad.

"Mother, don't worry, I invited the old marquis Sheng and the county lord over, and my father's illness will be fine." Fu Ziyan comforted.

"Then the old marquis of Lao Sheng and the county lord will bother, but I'm ...... Ay! Mrs. Guo sighed: "I really don't know what to do. ”

"Father will be fine, mother is relaxed."

Sheng Zhiyao glanced at Mrs. Guo, she knew that Mrs. Guo's heart was uncomfortable, and she could also understand the helplessness in Mrs. Guo's heart at the moment.

Old Marquis Sheng and Sheng Zhiyao walked into the room and saw Uncle Guo lying on the bed, his face was gray, and he looked very bad.

Sheng Zhiyao carefully observed Uncle Guo's face and found that Uncle Guo's lips were dark and his skin was shriveled and dull.

Sheng Zhiyao frowned, stretched out his hand to probe Uncle Guo's snort, and found that Uncle Guo still had a faint breath.

This made Sheng Zhiyao breathe a sigh of relief, she put Uncle Guo's right hand on her wrist to sign the pulse, and after some inspection, the illness in Uncle Guo's body is already very serious, and I am afraid that there will be no good results if it drags on like this, and the disease in Uncle Guo's body is a chronic toxin, although it has not completely attacked yet, but it may attack at any time, and I am afraid that even Da Luo Jinxian will not be able to save Uncle Guo.

Sheng Zhiyao turned his head to look at Fu Ziyan and Uncle Guo's wife: "I have already checked, Uncle Guo has been poisoned, and this poison is probably not short-term, but long-term." ”

"Huh?" Fu Ziyan and Mrs. Guo looked at Sheng Zhiyao in shock.

"Yes, if Uncle Guo's illness is delayed any longer, I am afraid it will worsen, and Uncle Guo's physical condition is very weak, and he can't continue to delay, otherwise it is likely to be life-threatening." Sheng Zhiyao looked at them with a serious face.

"So what should I do?" Mrs. Guo asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, I'll prepare the antidote for Uncle Guo first, and let him drink it."

Sheng Zhiyao prescribed a prescription and handed it to Fu Ziyan, and it didn't take long for the medicine to be caught, Sheng Zhiyao carefully checked the medicinal materials, and confirmed that it was correct before starting to decoct the medicine for Uncle Guo, and Uncle Guo woke up an hour later.

"Uncle Guo, what do you feel uncomfortable about now?"

"Weakness and body aches." Uncle Guo smiled bitterly: "What's wrong with me?" ”

Sheng Zhiyao thought for a while: "You were poisoned." ”

"Poisoned?" Uncle Guo showed a surprised expression on his face, he always thought it was just an ordinary illness, but he didn't expect it to be poisoning, why didn't Lang Zhong who was invited at that time find out?

"Yes, you're poisoned, and it's quite deep."

"How is this possible, how can it be?"

"This poison is very rare, it is chronic, and ordinary people can't detect it, so the previous Lang Zhong was also prescribed to you as an ordinary illness, but because the effect of the medicine is not right, it will be feverish after taking it for a long time, and fainting, and this situation is caused by the spread of toxins in the body, if you don't take the antidote, tomorrow morning at the latest, your life will not be saved."

"Is there an antidote?" Uncle Guo asked anxiously.

"I've already fed you and drunk, now you take care of your body first, and leave the rest to my grandfather."

Uncle Guo looked at the old marquis next to him and said in surprise: "Your grandfather? Old Marquis Sheng? You are the Lord of Yongchen! ”

"Exactly."
